weitzel78 Posted September 2, 2016 Posted September 2, 2016 In stock at SAH. Retuned the two I ordered from WM, after seeing the smashed boxes and the store refusing the Amazon PM. They claimed they don't price match anymore. Quote
kris_1973 Posted September 3, 2016 Posted September 3, 2016 FYI: Saw 31R6 at Lego Store on this set. Quote

I was at a Lego store yesterday, and they had plenty in stock, also they returned to SAH. I think I will gamble & wait until Oct for x2 VIP & holiday promo I missed some of the discounted ones recently, so that gives me hope knowing that I could find a good discount before Oct. If not I will keep the hope that they will still have them in the stores for the Oct. promos, and if they don't oh well I guess I will just miss the bus on this one...

I don't think it's much of a gamble though. SC is going to be around for a bit longer... Quote

Don't see it at any other retailers either. Looks like LEGO Shop at Home is it unless they do another production run. Just noticed LEGO Shop at Home got a new website. Any chance they wiped the blacklist clean as well? lol 1 Quote
Lordoflego Posted September 10, 2016 Posted September 10, 2016 Recent from Niko 19r6 2 purchased within last month from Lego store were both 24r6 1 Quote
Nick83 Posted September 10, 2016 Posted September 10, 2016 Production code with "R" letter seems to say that they come from Europe. First solution : SC is stopped , they bring the remaining stock from Europe. Second solution : The US factories no longer make SC ( weak global demand ) only European factory still manufactures this set. Quote
Grynn Posted September 10, 2016 Posted September 10, 2016 R is Mexico And as emazers noted a few days ago, there are 30R6 floating around... Quote

Last time I checked 5 seconds ago, there are no USA LEGO factories. has anyone ever documented even a single european box sold at USA shop at home? besides not having a piece count, don't they have different warning labels? seems preposterous that TLG would waste money moving small number of European boxed sets from Europe to USA just to fill a few extra orders.

I agree, not saying we are right, but i still agree. Plus few sets (tumbler?) retired at different times in Europe vs USA, if they were moving them across the pond, they would be retiring at the same time I think. Quote

SC ain't no SSD. Edited September 10, 2016 by cladner 1 Quote
BrickLegacy Posted September 13, 2016 Posted September 13, 2016 Target cancelled my SC order from 8/30. Quote
exciter1 Posted September 24, 2016 Posted September 24, 2016 Just received my shipment confirmation for the Sandcrawler from Toysrus.com. FYI - they are still available. Ended up getting one for $175 after rewards and discount gift cards. 1 Quote
GiliusThunderhead Posted September 28, 2016 Posted September 28, 2016 Rumor has it that its triple VIP points for SW sets in the EU this Friday (and weekend). In the UK LEGO Shop at Home is really the only place you can get this set AFAIK. All guesswork really but this might be the last chance to get this one at a "decent" discount. Interested to see if it goes OOS. 1 Quote
BarryZola Posted September 28, 2016 Posted September 28, 2016 Toys R Us were doing it for £200 around a month ago (they still have some in stock for £250). I grabbed one at the £200 price plus another fiver off. Triple points would be interesting Quote
MarleyMoose Posted September 29, 2016 Posted September 29, 2016 (edited) I got a 23 R6 that has a nice puncture wound on the face. One cloudy seal. The weight 3119 grams. BP and BS listed weights are somewhat off from each other. Edited September 29, 2016 by MarleyMoose Quote

Every time I have to open the box and every time I do, it ends up being complete and I opened the box for nothing. Quote
